I got into therapy as soon as I turned 18 and then more consistently in college. It changed my life so much so I took a hard off-ramp from the career path I was on with linguistics. It had helped me transform the ways I was coping with a traumatic past that were no longer working for me. Talk therapy was incredibly helpful for what I needed at that time. I knew I wanted to support others' transformations, too, especially adults who suffered from traumatic childhoods who were looking to find peace in the present and connect with themselves and others more deeply.
​
​
After grad school, I was initially trained in EMDR (an intense trauma therapy modality) and after I used this for a year I was not happy with the results it was (and was not) offering to clients. I discovered Organic Intelligence, which is an off-shoot from Somatic Experiencing and an approach to trauma healing that is incredibly nuanced, complex, integrative, and, above all, nervous-system informed-- all things I felt grad school and other approaches lacked. It changed me personally and professionally. Life-altering. I dove into that training and I've been so privileged to be able offer this type of support to clients for the last five years. I will be a student of human development for life and am committed to tailoring the type of support I give to each unique individual I meet with. It looks like talk therapy in practice but the way I respond to each client is informed by an understanding of how human nervous systems actually heal and transform.
​
I work well with individuals who are wanting more support for/with:
- anxiety & panic
- relationship dissatisfaction
- healing from childhood trauma in a nuanced way
- spiritual integration/faith crisis ("Dark Night of the Soul")
- adults unsure of whether to stay & grieve or leave their romantic partnership
- love addiction & codependency
- integrating meaningful psychedelic experiences
- exploring identity
